Wasn’t exactly expecting anything different from Hurta. Same old…
Sage definitely in a bit of a swoon. Surprisingly, she'll still make Eugene w/14 DL points (only American) from early season. She has 2 races in Italy this week also, it's not impossible she sharpens up again.
Lesson for Americans is if you show up and compete at DL meets, you can pile up some mid placings to make the final. Running for a swiss brand, she is also probably incentivised to go to DL meets.
Mohamed Katir from Muleño, world runner-up in the 5,000 meters in Budapest , will run the 1,500 meters of the Diamond League in Zurich (Switzerland) on August 31 to close the outdoor season before taking a few days of vacation. “I'm going to run in Zurich and rest. I wanted to make the Spanish record of the 1,500m but my legs are tired. I have two days of rest and I will race in Switzerland. I'm going to try to beat Jakob Ingebrigtsen and, if it can't be, then vacation ," said Katir, at the end of the World Athletics Championships in Budapest. The Murcian athlete is the great Spanish reference in the middle distance.
Also funny for Kejelcha could raise his pace and "make it hurt" from 2000m out in this race that will probably end up being a 12.45/6 race - yet he couldn't do the same in Budapest in a race where they went through 3000m almost 30 seconds slower.
It’s called micro dosing post WC.
Happens every year, someone who is capable based on times performs very poorly at WC or Olympics, then within days smashes it at a DL race.
